  1. Divided States of America in a recession since 1984 ( Reagonomics ) of pure evil! Finally it is clear as daylight and suffering of Americans MUST not be ignored anymore! Billionaires and millionaires are stealing our futures and guilty of treason 🙄😶🙄🙄

  2. Constitution is being trampled on because highly well educated Americans are being pushed into poverty and homelessness for NOT willing ( rightfully so and logically so ) to take slave wages in America that cannot keep up with every day expenses and no chance for self actualization! Millionaires and billionaire businesses are criminals guilty of treason ( labor exploitation ) 😶😶😶

  3. INFLATION:
    Food: 20% to 50% ( not going down)
    Electricity: 50% (not going down)
    Heating Gas: 50% (not going down)
    Car Gas: Stuck above $3.50/Gallon ( too expensive ); under $2.40 is needed
    Healthcare: Not affordable since 2008. Priced out.
    Wages: No livable wages since 1984. Every American should be at a base pay for any job as the new standard of $33/Hour and up to self actualization and health and financial security's. Most Americans make under $15/Hour which is abject poverty or worse.
    Real Unemployment: 44%+ permanently and as high as 75% in many parts of the USA 😑😑😑

  4. I got laid off from Microsoft recently. Not sure the recession is the reason for the mass layoffs. Believe companies are cutting projects they wanted to cut a long time ago and using the recession as a way out. Made a video about my experience as well!
